Winter has arrived

Here's little Ollie Saturday morning about 9 a.m. after having eaten her brekkie.  There's a little bit of snow.

At 4 p.m. when I returned with dinner for the kitties it was a whole different scene.   I had to dig them out!

The snow continued to fall for at least another 7 hours Saturday evening after the 4 pm feeding so I had to dig them out again Sunday morning.    Thankfully it was a light fluffy snow so it's easy to shovel.

Que was so snowed in Sunday morning because of drifting so the poor fella was unable to get from his sleeping shelter inside a fenced area to the feeding station.  I got into the fenced area and spent 30 minutes shovelling a path, it's a long path, from sleep shelter to feeding shelter.  The snow was about 12"-14" deep.

Que is the little black spot between the drifted snow.  He had just come out from the fenced area, where his sleeping shelter is tucked away, to have a bite to eat.
